Summary

Function: string llList2CSV( list src );
0.0 Forced Delay
10.0 Energy

Returns a string of comma separated values taken in order from src.

• list src

More precisely the values are separated with a comma and a space (", ").

This function's functionality is equivalent to llDumpList2String(src, ", ");

The result of this function is more or less the "Wikipedia logo"CSV format, but it does not conform in all its details.

To reverse the process use llCSV2List. But see the Caveat.

Caveats

  • llCSV2List will not reverse the process if there are commas in any of the original strings. One way around this is to first use llEscapeURL on any user-supplied strings before adding them to the list. llUnescapeURL will reverse llEscapeURL or a cheaper way would be to use < and > as double quotes around the string and llGetSubString with START at 1 and END at -2.

Examples

<lsl>default {

   state_entry()
   {
       list my_list = [1, 2.0, "a string", llGetPos(), llGetRot(), llGetOwner()];
       llOwnerSay(llList2CSV(my_list));        
   }
}</lsl>
